The proposal would set up a program that helps people who have completed a prison sentence find jobs, receive training, and get support through the existing Public Employment Service Office. Employers who hire and keep these workers for at least six months could claim a tax deduction equal to 15 % of the wages they pay. The bill also earmarks ₱100 million for the first year and assigns the Department of Labor and Employment to lead the effort.
